I've still been battling trying to get my wifi up and running, too.
This post triggered the memory that neither of those applies to my
setup anymore. Somewhere thankfully early on, I discovered mine is
"wlp2s0" on Sid Unstable.

Command line's "iwconfig" as root is how I determined that. There is a
reasonable rationale out there as to why it became that, but that
escapes me just this second. It was about it being wireless and the
tailend of it represented its... [residency] somehow.

The "p" and the "s" stood for something recognizable to me, and the
two numerical digits were its location at those... somethings. I just
tried a quick search and didn't find it. Figured someone might
recognize it if I go ahead and post anyway. :)

Throwing it out there in case someone stumbles upon this thread, and
the others don't apply.

PS enp1s0 is now my other one, as well.

Cindy :)
